Today marks the first day of #LatineHeritageMonth! We’ve put together a (non-comprehensive) reading guide to help grow your TBR this Latine Heritage Month – and beyond!

We are looking for an Assistant Professor of Global Change Biology to join us @biologieudem.bsky.social !

The SORTEE Guidelines for Data and Code Quality Control in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology This is a Preprint and has not been peer reviewed. This is version 1 of this Preprint.

Introducing "The SORTEE Guidelines for Data and Code Quality Control in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology"

The first standardised set of data editor guidelines. Led by SORTEE with input from numerous data editors across ecology and evolution.

My first @ecologicalsociety.bsky.social meeting was fantastic! New and old friends and colleagues, great science and a lot of fun! I co-led a workshop on publishing for ECRs, presented a talk on my lab’s latest work and received the editorial fellowship💜. Thanks ESA!

Andrea Paz Velez (of @umontreal.ca‬) is an inaugural Editorial Fellow! With experience across journals & continents, she’s focused on reducing bias—especially for multilingual authors & women in science.

Our #ESA2025 Awards Ceremony this morning also celebrated our newest ESA Excellence in Ecology (EEE) Scholars, our first cohort of Editorial Fellows, and this year's SEEDS Fellow.

Give a round of applause for…⬇️

Yes! Come talk to me about publishing in the Bulletin of the ESA! Have an essay or an op-ed about ecology burning inside you or on your computer? Send it my way! A poem? Pictures depicting ecology? Papers on ecology education? We take them all! Find me at #ESA2025 and ask me anything!

A Global Regionalisation of Tree Functional Capacity Aim Understanding the global distribution of tree functional diversity is essential for predicting ecosystem responses to environmental change. Traditional biogeographic regionalisations classify ec.....

A bit late to sharing our newest paper led by Yohana Jimenez !
A global regionalisation of tree-inhabited ecosystems based on tree functional traits.

What blew my mind away, though, is that #ICCB2025 offered LIVE, REAL-TIME English transcription/translation services for their oral presentations via their conference app. That's truly unbelievable! 🤯 (8/10)

Fig 5 from the PLOS Biology paper Amano et al. (2023) Figure title: Estimated disadvantages for non-native English speakers when conducting different scientific activities. Figure description provided in the Amano et al. paper: The height of hurdles indicates the relative length of time taken to read an English-language paper (Reading), to write a paper in English (Writing), and to prepare an oral presentation in English (Presentation), and the relative frequency of an English-language paper being rejected (Paper rejection) or requested to revise (Paper revision) due to English writing, for non-native English speakers (Non-native), compared to native English speakers (Native). The values are for non-native English speakers who have published only one English-language paper (higher value from moderate and low English proficiency nationalities), compared to the values for native English speakers. This figure is not intended to suggest that science is a race.

This effort has been spearheaded by @tatsuya-amano.bsky.social. If you're a native speaker or already fluent in English, you might not consider your English proficiency a privilege, but it actually is. Being non-fluent in English comes w/ many disadvantages, as shown👇 (tinyurl.com/yc4nm8he). (2/10)

It's a summer conference season, so I thought I'd tell you about the tremendous efforts our conservation biology colleagues have been making to make conferences more INCLUSIVE & friendly to early career researchers (ECRs) not fluent in English. I find their accomplishments truly inspiring. 🧵(1/10)
